    Refugees and IDPs Ali Hasanov stated that State Budget expenditures
    on an IDP for 2011 amounted to AZN 715 ($894), which is the highest

    "In 2011, it was spent $500 million on needs of refugees and IDPs
    - $295 million from the State Budget, $175 million from the State
    Oil Fund (SOFAZ) and $30 million from international humanitarian
